As the title says, should I be concerned? I get the impression this is just a bureaucratic change (company doesn’t want to deal with both salaried and hourly workers for timesheet reporting). But I’d like to make sure.

    I’d assume you meant just the 40 hours right? As far as I can tell I could still get overtime since it’s non-exempt either way.

      No, what I mean is that salary guarantees you get @ least 40 hours of pay (assuming salaried full-time). If you show up for work and they send you home, as a salaried employee you still get paid. Or if you finish the alloted work for the week early, you still get paid for 40.

      After all of that is when non-exempt comes into play with OT pay according to federal & state regulations and any contract guarantees that go above those regulations.
